Over the years, Johnny Marr has developed a reputation for gifting and lending out his guitars to his musician friends – including the likes of Oasis' Noel Gallagher and Radiohead's Thom Yorke, to name a select few.
Now The Cribs have shared a story about a “talismanic” guitar trade that Marr proposed during the time he joined the British indie rockers – from 2008 to 2011, spawning the album Ignore the Ignorant – recalling Marr’s ‘joke’ attempt to swap Ryan Jarman's tasty ’70s Mustang for his nine-pickup Stratocaster.
